Abstract
This study examines the structural, electrical, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of La0.8Ag0.2Mn0.9A0.1O3 (A: Mn, and Co) compounds under doping in the B-site. XRD results show that the compound containing Co ions directly replaced Mn ions in the B-site without forming a secondary phase containing higher metallic Ag impurities. The data obtained using Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), the temperature dependence of magnetization (M-T), the magnetic field dependence of magnetization (M-H), and the magnetic entropy change (SM) analysis reveal the effect of the doped element on the magnetic properties of the compounds due to the changes they create in the structural and Mn3+/Mn4+ ratio. It has been determined that the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition temperature (Curie temperature, TC) of the La0.8Ag0.2Mn0.9Co0.1O3 (LAMO-Co) is quite lower than the LAMO.
